Is reality as fragile as glass?
If it breaks, what will happen to our lives?
It is all an illusion of the past.

Look at the picture; blur you vision fast.
It is a laughing face; open your eyes!
Is reality as fragile as glass?

Throw a card on top; don’t slap the deck last.
Flip a card; on top you see double fives.
It is all an illusion of the past.

Is it a dancer or is it a bass?
These images are filled with easy lies.
Is reality as fragile as glass?

Fireworks explode in a color blast.
Moments later, the sound cuts through like knives.
It is all an illusion of the past.

Our reality perceptions are vast.
Life is a dream; we wake up when it dies.
Is reality as fragile as glass?
It is all an illusion of the past.
